SC, I had my Am Pondweed planted. They dug in shallow water and placed roots in the underwater soil. Based on that, I suspect you might be wise to wait until your pond fills, then plant. Not sure it would survive being inundated five or six feet right away, or (on the other extreme) left on dry land for weeks.

I'm no expert, just observing from my experience. Be sure you have identified the right plant, and that you don't have unwelcome hitchhikers!
